Description

Is this the best-looking Sarracenia oreophila around? It's certainly a contender! Originally from the Sand Mountain plateau in Northwest Georgia, this plant's distinct habitat no doubt contributes to its unique appearance.

This ornate variety of oreophila is heavily veined with thick red lines on a base of green that transitions to autumnal colouration as the seasons evolve.

If you only ever have one Sarracenia oreophila in your collection, make it this one.

Basic Care

Sarracenia plants are straightforward to care for, given the correct conditions. An unheated greenhouse is an ideal location for Sarracenia, they can be grown outside in the UK but a greenhouse provides a longer growing season. Here are the 3 golden rules for healthy Sarracenia.

1. Provide as much sun as possible.
2. Keep their pots sat in 1-2cm of rainwater.
3. Use acidic soil. A 1:1 peat moss & perlite mix is typical but you can also research peat-free alternatives.
